Muscle relaxers are a group of drugs that reduce tension and spasm in muscles and have an overall sedative effect on the body. Muscle-relaxing drugs are designed to depress the central nervous system. There are two main types of muscle relaxers: spasmolytics and neuromuscular blockers.
Muscle relaxants are commonly prescribed to patients along with plenty of rest and physical therapy. There are several different types of muscle relaxants but the type that completely blocks transmission of nervous signals to the muscles are called 'neuromuscular-blockers'.t's never a good idea to take muscle relaxers or any other prescription drug without knowing what the side effects are. Each muscle relaxant has its own set of possible side effects that may be experienced and some are less serious than others.
